29 January 2008Photonics and flexible display applications of phase-separated liquid crystals
Anisotropic phase-separation of liquid crystal and polymer composite is highly applicable for obtaining the durable
electro-optic devices. In this presentation, the theoretical model for phase separation phenomena based on the onedimensional
kinetic approach is introduced. For the applications of phase-separated LCs, we propose the fabrication of
mechanically stable flexible display and electrically controllable microlens array using two- or three-dimensional
anisotropic phase separation. Since LC molecules are isolated by polymer structure due to the anisotropic phase
separations, resultant devices show very good mechanical stability against external pressure and stable electro-optic
characteristics.
